It’s been a while…

It’s been a while since I saw your face.
How’ve you been? I’ll admit I really missed this place.

I hope you know, you haven’t been replaced.
Cause I still think of you now like nothing has changed.

It’s been a while since I felt that pain.
When you left, it wasn’t right, not as it should have been.

I cried enough, leaving open scars on my empty skin.
Nights went numb, and the silence slowly pulled me in.

It’s been a while since I saw you smile.
You used to joke, make me laugh for a little while.

I miss that piece, that part of you that made me wild.
Now my thoughts are scattered, I don’t know how to reconcile.

I learned to breathe without thinking of your name.
Told myself that loving you was just a losing game.

It’s been a while, but every memory of you still burns the same.
No matter what I try, I only have myself to blame.
